hannahstone15 Skill Sales Voice KitResearch a prospect the way top sellers do, then draft the right kind of sales message: a first touch, a short follow-up bump, or a compressed executive email when the recipient is VP-level or above, all written in the sender's own voice with real personal details instead of generic AI phrasing. Use this skill whenever someone asks to draft or rewrite outbound copy, a cold email, a LinkedIn note, a follow-up or bump, an executive email, or wants help sounding more human and building more trust with a message. On first use, the skill asks a handful of quick questions to learn how the user actually writes and a few real things about their life, then saves that so every message after sounds like them without re-asking.
